Orvecame/Grupo Cabrera Medina has announced a new initiative in the world of motorsport in the Canary Islands: the Opel Adam Cup. To this end, the top managers of Grupo Cabrera Medina met at their facilities in Lanzarote with the presidents of the different Automobile Federations in the Canary Islands, in order to present them with the attractive project that will be staged in the next 2017 season and for a period of 3 years.
The Orvecame dealership has been analyzing different ways to remain linked to the world of competition for several years, looking for a formula that is attractive to the Group and, at the same time, adds value to motor sports in the Canary Islands. Hence this initiative.
The objectives of this new project are to create an attractive Cup with a special car and at an affordable cost, promote the sport of motor racing in the Islands and contribute to the emergence and development of new drivers.
The model chosen to compete in the one-make cup is the Opel Adam "S" Motor 1.4T – 150 HP, Group N3, approved by the Royal Spanish Automobile Federation. This is a car with very few modifications to achieve an affordable entry price and low maintenance costs.
The cars, currently under construction, will be delivered to the different participants, fully equipped for competition and incorporating all safety elements.
The Opel Adam Cup will be Regional in scope, and, although the composition of the calendar is still pending, the scoring events will take place in Gran Canaria and Tenerife (2 events each), 1 event in Lanzarote and another in La Palma. The Adam Cup will offer various cash prizes, as well as starting bonuses to each of the participants.
As a result of the long experience of Orvecame/Grupo Cabrera Medina sponsoring various events on the calendar, and the close contact that is maintained with the sector, there is general agreement on the need to once again have attractive one-make cups to help rallies continue to be one of the most followed sports disciplines in the Archipelago.
Under construction, in a short time they will have all the necessary information on our website, specifically for the Adam Cup.

After nearly 50 years, it retains its family structure, offers services throughout the Canary Islands and is present in all airport ports, tourist areas and strategic points of the Canary Archipelago.
